The Japanese theatrical trailer for the film "ALWAYS LALISA," which follows BLACKPINK’s LISA, a global superstar who is also active as a rapper, singer, dancer, and actress, has been released. The film "ALWAYS LALISA," which will be theatrically released worldwide from October 12, is an intimate documentary film that follows one year of LISA’s first full-fledged solo activities, rather than BLACKPINK. It also depicts LISA’s struggle as she pours all her effort into challenges in acting and expressing her own individuality amid the pressure of solo activities, while at the same time wishing to value her private time. In addition, a screening in Hokkaido has also been decided. A one-day-only screening has been decided for Wednesday the 14th at TOHO Cinemas Susukino. ■ Work overview Film "ALWAYS LALISA" Viewing fee: Flat 3,000 yen Running time: 1 hour 38 minutes Theaters / screening schedule (Tokyo) Human Trust Cinema Yurakucho | October 12 (Mon) to December 18 (Sun) Human Trust Cinema Shibuya | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) 109 Cinemas Futako-Tamagawa | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) 109 Cinemas Kiba | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed) MOVIX Kameari | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) United Cinema Aqua City Odaiba | October 12 (Mon) United Cinema Toshimaen | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed) 109 Cinemas Grandberry Park | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) (Hokkaido) TOHO Cinemas Susukino | one-day-only screening on the 14th (Wed) (Niigata) United Cinema Niigata | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) (Miyagi) MOVIX Sendai | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) (Ishikawa) United Cinema Kanazawa | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) (Tochigi) MOVIX Utsunomiya | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) (Saitama) MOVIX Saitama | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) (Kanagawa) Lawson United Cinema Style-S Minato Mirai | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) 109 Cinemas Kawasaki | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) 109 Cinemas Shonan | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) (Chiba) United Cinema Terrace Mall Matsudo | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) (Nagoya) Midland Square Cinema | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) United Cinema Toyohashi 18 | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) Lawson United Cinema Okazaki | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) (Osaka) TOHO Cinemas Namba | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) 109 Cinemas Osaka Expo City | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) (Hiroshima) MOVIX Hiroshima Station | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) (Fukuoka) United Cinema Canal City 13 | October 12 (Mon), 14 (Wed), 17 (Sat) Director: Sue Kim Produced by: Sue Kim, Courtney Crockett Cast: LISA (Lalisa Manobal) Cinematography: Emily Topper Editing: Ezra Peak Music: Aska Matsumiya Country of production: United States Year of production: 2026 Production companies: Sony Music Vision, RCA Records, Tremolo Productions, Salt Water Productions, LLOUD CO.
